Athlon Slot A 750 Mhz= this equals a Front Side Bus Speed of 100Mhz(actually double pumped to equal 200Mhz) with a multiplier of 7.5. This equals 750Mhz! Most Mainboards that supported slot A CPU's had no jumpers to set (jumperless) I have seen only a few that did. You will know...

I can't believ it and i'm freaking out becuase my oil filter spit oil all over the place. The truck ran for at least 10 minutes......never overheated and was still leaking oil when i shut it down. I made a HUGE mistake leaving it unattended for that while. I hope i did not damge the motor...

thanks... Thanks for the info. I will be removing the cap while it is mounted in the truck. The Good News? For the first time in over a year, my 4x4auto engaged nicely today! Maybe there was a wet contact or something after the cleaning, as it would not engage yesterday. Today, after...

Anyone? Can Anyone here help me?

I cleaned my Shift Motor today. I did the brush end housing only. Founf some Carbon buildup/cleaned/reassembled/ Same Problem. The truck just refuses to engage 4Auto on the move. Engages fine while at a stop and stays engaged. The one thing i did not do while i cleaned the Shift Motor...

Can anyone explain in detail how the Shift Motor works in a 4WD Auto setup (96 Explorer Control Trac). For example.....when it actually works and when it doesn't. I have been having a problem with my explorers 4WD Auto. It no longer engages as the vehicle is in motion (say 5-10MPH). But...

4WD AUTO like I siad earlier, it engages if I come to a complete stop only. 4auto will no longer engage if the vehicle is moving. My mechanic says that the output shaft in the shift motor may be sticking while the vehicle is in motion...supposedly there is a cam, and when the vehicle moves...

? please explain can anyone explain why simply cleaning the motor is enough....I can't see cleaning as a reliable long-term solution. Don't the brush's in the motor suffer damage? Most electrical motors of that type need rebuilding,no? Has anyone here had their shift motor fail after...

some tips......maybe i am having a similar issue with my 96. I do have the 4x4 auto light coming up. My truck just refuses to engage 4x4 auto while moving...4x4 lo works fine...although i lost all capabilitys in a bad snowstorm recently. I was told to replace my shift motor. could be a...

just got my truck back form a diagnostic mechanic. He says my shift motor is acting up. Also says he has replaced many on explorers. According to him....the GEM, relays and shift motor are all on one circuit. He says the GEM is fine/ No codes!...also says the relays check out fine...

i hope that is not it I am having the truck looked at monday by a diagnostician! he does have a good reputation at fiding electronic related problems. 450.00 is a lot of money....and i would be pissed if thats the case....so much so, that i will sell the X after the repair. Doesn't ford...

HELP! HELP AGAIN!

hmmn.... doesn't the speed sensor only compare wheel spin from front to rear and vice versa? I don't think the sensors could stop engagement or could they? like i had posted earlier.....4WD auto dash light won't come on until i come to a complete stop. Weird....i hope someone here can help...

Hello Folks. Here is my problem.... (96 Explorer) My 4WD Auto does not enage while the vehicle is in movement. I have always engaged it as i was driving slow, say 5-10MPH. No Good anymore. If i stop the 4WD auto lights up on the dash and engages. 4WDLO enages fine in neutral at a stop like...

forget the HP forget the HP ratings.....torque rating is where it's at, and the 4.0 OHV does have a good torque rating at a very usable rpm! Granted the engine is not high on horsepower, it's torque is very good. That is why these trucks pull well (up hills etc...) You will notice that...

I love my X but.... no way it outlasts any Honda. I have a company honda with 300,000 and still runs fine, the motor and tranny were never touched other than maintenance issues. Hondas are prob one of the most reliable cars in the world. A friend of mine has a civic that commutes with every...

TOO BAD ITS A CHEVY... THE HEART ATTACK OF AMERICA! S-10's look kind of cheap to me......A RANGER would be better!

Here is my X Mainly used on-road.....planning on occasional off-road. TT lift with warrior shackles and 31x10.50 BFG AT's on 15x8's. It is very clean...a 96 with only 59k miles on it. The previous owner was a 50 year old who took great care of it.

I will be replacing my driver side valve cover on my 4.0 OHV engine. The cover developed a tiny pinhole in the rear corner, and since i use sinthetic, it leaks a tiny bit (can't have that in my nice x).....anyway.........has anyone done this? anything i should know? does it take long....i...

yaa right! sure....anything you say....better get a sawzall dude.

thats it? $1200 for rims?!?! you crazy? no way would i ever pay that much for rims man....hope no one steals them on ya...as you know...if they want them....wheel locks and an alarm won't stop em. Down here in mass, we have cars stolen on flat beds...they take what they need and dump...

get the FORD F-250! stay away from dodge....my dad's got a construction company and a fleet of trucks.....some ford/dodge's...chevys......the dodges have been problematic.......weak tranny in one. Lot's of little prob's always showing up. He does in fact like the Fords best....says they;re...

there are prob's with every car I had a chevy Z-71 before my X.....and it was a nightmare.....simply becuase the previous owner was a hack on maintenance. The thing blew it's first engine at 80k.....and then the tranny at 100k.....then a rear differential....then both CV-axles......then all my...

pretty X you need one thing though, those faded rear cab corners, all X's have em after a few years......have a body shop paint em shiny black, and then she'll look smooth, later

can use an 8" or 10" wheel it's your choice really.....but on an X...you better stick with 15"x8" wheels to avoid any clearance probs. those will look wide as it is. I had a truck with 32x11.50's.....my original rims were 15"x8"....but later i swapped them to some 15"x10"rims. it was a big...
